What are Professional Fundraisers?

Professional fundraisers can be a business or even just an individual person who is hired to do fundraising campaigns for charitable organizations. In order to practice this profession in the state of Arkansas, one must be properly registered and licensed as demanded by the Arkansas Attorney General.

What is the purpose of an Arkansas Professional Fund Raiser Surety Bond?

Unlike insurance, which protects you, a surety bond seeks to protect the public or the obligee. In this case, the purpose of the surety bond is

to assure the state that whatever funds you will be able to raise as a professional fundraiser will be handled professionally. They will not be mishandled or mismanaged and will be endorsed to the proper authority or the charitable organization that hired you.

In the event that someone suffers damages from any wrongdoing you did while working as a professional fundraiser, the surety company will issue a payout, which you will reimburse to that company.
